About this church
Fortieth Avenue Church of Christ is a Nashville congregation where Sunday School begins at 9 a.m., Sunday worship at 10 a.m., and Wednesday Bible study at 7 p.m. A Tuesday morning prayer call is also available using connection details on the church website. Worship is described as reverent, energetic, and joyful, centered on exalting Jesus and following New Testament teaching. The congregation celebrates Communion every first day of the week, practices robust congregational singing rather than entertainment-oriented performance, and teaches baptism as essential to salvation and church membership. Minister Charles A. Beaman has served the congregation since 1990.
Organized in 1954 in the old Clifton School building, the church developed with assistance from several area congregations, especially Park Avenue Church of Christ. Its current mission emphasizes seeking people, equipping Christians, serving needs, biblical teaching, ethical leadership, fellowship, and bringing hope within the surrounding neighborhood and beyond. More than two dozen ministries offer ways to participate. Published examples include benevolence through emergency food boxes and qualifying financial assistance, care for sick or homebound members, meals for college students, children, youth, men, music, media, technology, and building service. The site does not give service duration, clothing guidance, parking, accessibility, nursery or check-in information, livestream frequency, or hearing support.
